I've said for a LONG time that Jeter has the smallest ******* strikezone and gets more borderline pitches than anyone ever. But tell me that ab in the 9th tonight wasn't ******* ridiculous. 3? pitches that were strikes called balls. It's so ******* terrible. Isn't Jeter embarrassed to be the benefactor of such blatant favoritism? I hope this is really looked into and umpires get it in ******* gear because his whole career is a ******* joke. Should be a career .270 hitter.

LOL! Yeah, you see that all the time not just with Jeter. Established players considered to have a "good eye" for the strike zone get the benefit of the doubt. Atlanta's Chipper Jones comes to mind. A pitcher paints a corner on one of these guys and they don't even flinch. Ump says ball. Later on some lesser player gets rung up on a pitch 6 inches off the plate!Comment -
the stars get the calls in every sport, always have , always will, get the fk over itComment -
Jeter is a little punk. A pitch right down the middle and he'll act as if it was far outside by leaning forward in the box. Complete crapComment -
